From the heights of Printemps, we descend to the ground floor of Printemps Femme to discover the Buddy Buddy Café with its unique scenogra- phy from mid-July.Specializing in peanut butter,this will be the second Parisian location (a first café opened on rue de Marseille in March) where you can sit down to taste this famous spread made in their Belgian workshops, which is used in their drink or pastry recipes.
Printemps is, of course, all about fashion. This summer, the entire world of Boss will occupy the store’s Atrium until August 27. As for the Bandit pop-up (the sneaker from Caulaincourt) on the 5th floor of Printemps de l’Homme until July 31, it offers a customization service operated by master colorists: you choose the sneaker of your choice, its patina and even its sole (vintage, colored, white).
